MrSapo.com
The site describes itself as "an aggegator of numerous search providers, allowing you to access them from a single window."
A reviewer wrote of it, "MrSapo is perhaps best described as as being a meta–interface site. You get a single search box and the one search site, with buttons that enable you to perform your search at any of the many choices available, but only one at a time."
"Many" is the operative word: I counted 42 choices just for a basic search, with many others under "Images," "Audio," "Video," "Reference/Academic," "News," and "Blogs."
Man, there are some bizarro names out there: how about "Surfwax," "BananaPile" [possibly a deep black Gwen Stefani project], "Genie Knows," "Splat," "Hippo," "Incy Wincy" [I am not making this up — click the link and see for yourself], and many, many more.
James Fallow, this past Sunday in his New York Times column, wrote that "the bizarrely named but extremely useful MrSapo.com has become my favorite search portal."
If you think James Fallows has a good head on his shoulders then maybe you should emulate him.
